"When it comes to drugs, it is just appalling how much ignorance there is out there. The only sources I have found that are trustworthy are these: (1) your website and book "Ototoxic Drugs Exposed", (2) some pharmacists and (3) my psychiatrist—mine is especially careful about drugs."—N. B.

Your book is even more thorough than the Physicians Desk Reference available on line. I would have been very anxious...if it weren't for that fact that your book was available for me to refer to."—S.
